Alaska bound.....

Heidi Swapp ~ Petaloo Color Me Crazy blooms and
Altered Art Week....

I would have to say...I am in HEAVEN!! 

Next month, I am going on a ONCE IN A LIFETIME
adventure with my family....
to ALASKA!!

I had been wanting to make a mini book
to take with me to document the trip and
when I saw the GORGEOUS
Heidi Swapp ~ Vintage Chic Collection
with all it's goodies,
I just knew....this was the time!!!

 

 I had SOOO MUCH fun working with
the Heidi Swapp ~ Color Shine!!
I was spraying EVERYTHING!!

I stamped on the Color Magic Zig Zag Ribbon with
the Jump Rope Stamp by Unity.
Then, I spritzed the fabric banner away.

When it was dry I folded pleats in
banner, then embellished it with Pearl Pen Dots
and some glitter.

I spritzed the Resist Chipboard Alphas with the
Bronze ~ Color Shine.
Then I added Vintage Chic Letters over
the chippies.

Then the REAL FUN BEGAN......
Coloring the Color Me Crazy
Darjeeling flowers, Assorted foliage and
Fancy Corner Chippie!!!

I added a few Paprika ~ Mini Daises
as an accent.

Can I just say....I love how the CMC ~ Darjeeling
flowers took the color.
I spritzed the large flower with the
Aqua ~ Color Shine then
applied the Bronzer ~ Color Shine with a paintbrush.

To help the colors bleed together I
spritzed it with water
(the ulitmate color mover!!)

I hope you enjoyed my Altered Art Mini Album!!

goodies and play along with us...
